About this episode

England are used to a winning start in tournaments... but are we used to it being this... FUN?

The 3 Lions beat Croatia 4-2 in their World Cup opener and Thomas Tuchel's 'entertainers' have seemingly already captured the nation.

A now famous half-time team talk is said to have inspired the players. Is Tuchel's emotional and tactical management style what England need to get over the line?

And on the players themselves, are we going to witness a tournament where Harry Kane has his name up with Messi, Mbappe and Haaland?

Journalist and co-host of The Football Boardroom Henry Winter joins Gabby and Mark for all that and more.
